What should we be aware and do when taking First Time Cruise?

[Donald1]

We are going to be taking our honeymoon in June and are taking the 4-day CCruise. We were wondering if any one had any information or tips to make this a memorable memory.
We look forward to your responses.

What a wonderful way to spend your honeymoon!
You have chosen a relatively carefree vacation. The only thing you will need to worry about at all is getting Palo and spa reservations if you want those (and I definitely suggest a romantic meal at Palo and the surial bath, a great couples experience ). You will want to be in line to make your reservations for both of those early. Once that bit of a rush is over, you can kick back and relax for the rest of the trip.
Also, be sure that your head server knows it's your honeymoon, and you will be serenaded and get a special cake and buttons. And attend the Match Your Mate show...you might get picked, as they typically pick a honeymooning couple.
To find out what you can eat, what's going on, etc. I recommend my site at www.castawayclub.com, Dave's site at www.dcltribute.com, and of course lots of visits here to DIS.
Have an awesome trip!

Donna,
We are taking the 7 day for our Honeymoon in Sept 2003. I will be very interested to know how you enjoyed your cruise and what your experiances were as far as being a honeymooning couple. My only advise would be to read these boards. I still have awhile before our trip but I have already learned soooo much from here. If you would not mind, post a trip report when you get back for all of us future honeymooners out here. Congratulations on your wedding, and have a great time!!!!

Donald1 - Do Not miss Disney Dreams! And be sure to read your navigator carefully. On our first cruise we "thought" we did; but later found out we missed some stuff.
Have a wonderful honeymoon!

Barb covered most of it and I would definately check out her sight - it is full of great information.

The only thing I would add is to bring a highlighter so that when you look over your navigator you can highlight what you don't want to miss. It always helps us.

I found reading these boards and all the great web sites helped me before our cruise--otherwise I would have been clueless!!! Don't overpack-and have a great trip.

Just wanted to wish you a happy honeymoon, donald. We are going on the Disney Wonder 5/19 for our honeymoon - it is our first cruise as well. I'll try to update you when we return!

Sage1313 & Minnie's Guy:

Thanks for the reply.

Sage1313: Let me know how it was and what things you ran into so we can be prepared when we go in June. Fantom@goeaston.net

Minnie's guy: So you are saying that this cruise vacation is addicting?

We cannot wait till we go in June. It will be a great experience, all of the information that I have gotten off of here has helped us greatly. Keep the information coming. The more we know the better off we are. Have a disney day.
